WASTE NOT CONFIDENCE!
"Putting confidence in an unreliable man is like chewing with a sore tooth, or trying to run on a broken foot. (Prov 25:19 TLB)
Waste not confidence on people who will never live up to the investment of the same! Pain and disappointment will be the only return on that investment. Invest your confidence wisely and let God be the standard of measurement.
PRAYER: Lord, you are the standard of measurement by which we determine in whom we invest confidence! Help us to all be worthy investments. Amen!
Ps 118:8. . . .It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. KJV

AN UNBEATABLE COMBINATION
"So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. (Heb 10:35-37 NIV)
Confidence is faith and trust holding hands! It is an unbeatable combination with from which we can always expect a favorable outcome in every situation. Never let it go!
PRAYER: Lord, thank you that in you, our faith and trust is well placed! A favorable outcome from every situation is our expectation and we thank you in advance for the manifestation! Amen.
Rom 8:31. . . .What can we ever say to such wonderful things as these? If God is on our side, who can ever be against us? TLB

TRUST GOD!
"Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: (Phil 1:6 KJV)
In spite of disappointments and sometimes failures, we persevere with confidence knowing that the Lord will never give up on us! What He started in us, He will complete! So, get up; stand up; keep going; stay strong; re-engage; re-connect; go through; get through; stay in the race; endure to the end; TRUST GOD!
PRAYER: Lord, thank you for not ever giving up on us! Help us to trust you and never give up on ourselves! Amen.
Ps 138:8. . . . The Lord will work out his plans for my life-for your loving-kindness, Lord, continues forever. Don't abandon me-for you made me. TLB

HOW MUCH ARE WE WILLING TO LOOSE!
"For we must all stand before Christ to be judged and have our lives laid bare-before him. Each of us will receive whatever he deserves for the good or bad things he has done in his earthly body." (2 Cor 5:10 TLB)
The day of accounting is surely going to come when every believer will stand before the Lord Jesus and receive our reward for the things done while here on the earth. A lot is said about our golden crowns and white robes and such, but please know, we will also receive what we have earned for the bad we have done as well. Our salvation will not be at stake, but think of the reward we will loose as a result of our bad deeds. How much are we willing to loose? Eliminate the bad and increase the good; so also our reward shall be!
PRAYER: Lord you are just and true in all your ways. There is no unrighteousness with you. We pray that before your return we eliminate all the bad from our lives so that you will only have to reward us for our good! Amen!
Ps 37:27-30. . . .So if you want an eternal home, leave your evil, low-down ways and live good lives. For the Lord loves justice and fairness; he will never abandon his people. They will be kept safe forever; but all who love wickedness shall perish. The godly shall be firmly planted in the land and live there forever. The godly man is a good counselor because he is just and fair and knows right from wrong. TLB

THE RIGHT OR LEFT!
"Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:- - - - Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: (Matt 25:34; 25:41KJV)
Two sides, one for sheep (believers) one for (goats) non-believers! What we do and the choices we make now will determine what He does and the choice He makes then! Which side will we be on: THE RIGHT OR LEFT!
PRAYER: Lord, when the separation time comes, may what we've done and the choices we've made allow you to gladly position us on the right side! Amen!
Matt 25:41-45. . . .Then I will turn to those on my left and say, 'Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his demons. For I was hungry and you wouldn't feed me; thirsty, and you wouldn't give me anything to drink; a stranger, and you refused me hospitality; naked, and you wouldn't clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn't visit me.' "Then they will reply, 'Lord, when did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and not help you?' "And I will answer, 'When you refused to help the least of these my brothers, you were refusing help to me.' TLB
